Pobi,
Have not experienced during my lease term even though I do suffer from being older and subject to random back issues. Sorry to hear. Definitely try different positions as the seats are firm and use a prosthetic if it helps. Addressing back pain is complicated.
As to tires, your safety aside, I am told that dealers throw out old tires in any case. When I return my originals which I removed off the car, they will only have had 2000 miles put on them but will be 3 years old. I switched to softer ride all season non run flat Michelins.
Speaking of that, is it the seats or are you experiencing the hard ride that comes with a stiff bottom and run flat tires? The ride smoothed out when I switched from run flats.

Thanks a lot Jeff for comprehensive reply.
As for the tires unfortunately I have already bought 2 new run flat for a premium price, so will be stuck with them. The ride is not smooth but I can leave with that.
For the seat, I guess the issue is mainly with my back; I had problem with 3 out of 5 cars that bought in the last 5 years. Hopefully a. Ishion will help. BTW, any recommendation for the prostethic?
Thanks,
Pobi
